Creating back-ups and restoring important RadiMation files[edit]
Backup[edit]
When updating RadiMation® we strongly recommend to make a backup before you install the latest version of RadiMation®, please make sure to saveguard all your critical data.
Make a back up of (at least) the following files:
- Correction files
- Calibration files
- TSF files
- Sequence files
- Limit Line files
- Device driver configuration files
The folder identified by "Device driver configuration files" as seen in the image below is the top level configuration directory, often called the "ConfDvdr directory", by default the other folders are stored within this folder. This "Device driver configuration files" folder also contains other relevant configuration files which contain settings such as for example: The added device drivers, the engineers, test sites and customizations.
The locations of the folders which contain these files can be found under the "Directories" tab on the configuration menu. In case other locations are used ensure that all files at the relevant locations are also backed-up.
